OFFSTAGE: Tim McGraw Feels Like Clouds Are Parting

(CMT Offstage keeps a 24/7 watch on everything that’s happening with country music artists behind the scenes and
out of the spotlight.)

He says he doesn’t want to say the clouds are parting, but that is how Tim
McGraw thinks his new music will feel. He told Country
Aircheck there’s going to be a whole new level to what he does. “I’m in a position with the music I’m recording that
it’s kind of a watershed time for me as an artist. I don’t want to say clouds are parting, but it sort of has that feeling
artistically,” he said. He also promises that his fans will hear some of this new music — at least two or three songs —
on his summer tour with Kenny Chesney which kicks off Saturday night
(June 2) in Tampa. He isn’t sure exactly when the new album will be ready. It could be out this fall or maybe after the first
of the year. But McGraw does know this: “I feel like there’s way more ahead of me than there ever has been behind me.” So,
you could say, he ain’t as good as he’s gonna get, but he’s better than he used to be.
